  Eat Sleep Drink Music — Authority: 135
  I’m a huge fan of Tom Waits, particularly his oft-overlooked debut album, Closing Time .

But maybe Zooey Deschanel and M. Ward are the exception to that rule. Within the whirlwind schedule of their solo projects, weddings, ...

  popwreckoning — Authority: 141
  In my circle of friends it is a running joke that Marco only likes Warped Tour bands. Now there is nothing wrong with that, but there is so much more out there than just that pop punk sound. In an effort to diversify his music tastes, we’ve been trying to get Marco to as many shows as possible. I think after the ...

  Yes, it is up for argument, of course. But I know what i hate, and for these albums, there was nothing to hate on, save a stray throw-away track here or there.
